That probably means you are in the wrong forum: you should be asking
that on the mingw-w64 forum or maybe in the TDM forum, depending on
where did you get the binary.

Mingw.org distributes GCC that depends on libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll instead.
That's what I see in gcc-core-4.8.1-4-mingw32-dll.tar.lzma available
from the MinGW site.  Also, there's no GCC 4.8.4 there.

My crystal ball says that you are using a GCC from a project other
than mingw.org's MinGW.
